If you were living out on the streets and had no money at all and someone gave you $1,000. What would you do with it and what is the first thing you would buy?

At first, I would eat. Its hard to think on an empty stomac.
Then it would really depend on the answer to this question: Do I
already have a job?
If not, I would buy the necessary clothes and personal products
to make myself sufficiently presentable to try to get a job. I would
rent a P.O. Box to use as an address for the things that having
a job requires (like a place to send pay checks).
I would then apply for as many jobs as I possibly could before
whatever the things I had purchased started to wear out.
If I had a job (there are some jobs that don't pay enough to keep
some families under a roof), I would ponder if there is anything
I can do with that $1000 to reduce my current living costs so
that I could afford an apartment or some way I could use that
money to try to get a better, higher paying job.

Buy some food and a place to stay. The next day, I'd find a job and plan on getting out of my homeless situation, with the money I have.

I rent the cheapest motel for the night, take a long hot bath and order a pizza. I'd wash my clothes and since I was clean with a few bucks in my pocket I'd try to get into a Hostel to stay that way.

A room first to get cleaned up and wash my clothes. Then go buy new clothes and food somehere along the lines. If I was really hungry, I'd eat first probably..
